"I Have Done You A Favor, Now It's Your Turn"

Rin was a bit early at the training grounds where his next class would be. The teacher for the next class is Shura, she is currently not present yet so he sat down on the floor while Amaimon got down from Rin's shoulder and sat on his lap. Rin pets the small creature before stopping.

"Amai-nii, is it true that father said that?" Rin asked softly, he used their main demon language. If one exorcist or a student heard their conversation, then there might be a slight possibility he will be reported to the higher ups. The commonly used in demonic language sounds the same with chanting a verse. Summoning a barrier from using an ancient language is more appropriate to explain.

The little hamster looks up at him and tilts it's head. "You know, about Father had long forgiven the traitor and missed him so much ." The hamster nods and Rin frowns in response. "How come Father didn't tell me that? Was I not capable to learn such crucial reason?" The hamster did not respond, but he climbed up to Rin and went to his shoulder. Amaimon taps Rin's cheek so he would look at him. When Rin did, the hamster gave Rin a peck on the lips.

"It is not crucial Rin. Father had never told you because of many reasons. It is not like he doesn't want you to know, he was just afraid what you might think of him. And by the reaction you just made, you are surprised and baffled because the father you knew is someone who doesn't forgive anyone once he was stab behind his back." Amaimon said and rubs himself to Rin's cheek. Rin remained frowning, of course he would think of that. Wasn't he supposed to be unforgiving and cruel? Although throughout his 200 years in Gehenna, his father did not tried anything to hurt him. If he had done something that made Satan unpleased of his actions, he would be just locked up inside his room like a time out.

"Of course I would think of that. His title was the great demon God, the Impure King, Satan." Rin responded "That is only his title, but you never got the chance to his real personality. Don't you remember the first time you defy father? The day you refused to get out of his way because he was going to punish our brother Iblis for attacking you without his knowledge?" Rin nods. Now that he recalls it, his father had put up with him and had gotten stricter by then. His memories from the day he was reborn was a bit blurry but if something like this is mentioned, he could see the clear picture of it.

"Father had given you many chances. That day, father also realized you still had your mother's personality. The stubborn attitude remains in you, the kindness of helping others even if they had hurt you, and no matter who they are or what position they are, you fight for them." Rin did recall the times he had pleaded his father not to punish his brother. One is with Iblis like Amaimon said, two was when Beelzebub accidentally shot him lightning, three is when Astaroth had forced him to have a duel with him. The other times are mostly Astaroth again for having a duel with him. He had pleaded everytime with his father to not punish them.

"You are special to him. But he had indeed failed to let you see his other side as a caring, loving father what we all knew. You were raised by his strict rules, you followed him like a mindless puppet and ready to serve. You barely even got the chance to have a fun when talking to him. All of your conversations are like autopilot. When he was ready to tell you about Aniue in a good way, apparently you had thought he was very angry and enrage.  Father may have called Aniue a traitor but deep in our hearts he is still our family. No matter what he had done. Our oldest brother Lucifer might not like the thought of Aniue be forgiven but father did. It is okay for you not to forgive him Rin, but you will eventually come across that you might as well forgive him." Rin looks away when Amaimon had finally stopped. Rin sighed, he hasn't really take the chance to have a different conversation with his father because he was afraid of being punished. Not punish like locking him up inside his room, like torturing him. He doesn't know why that thought crossed his mind but it did.
